2013 Radical SR8 RX - Ready to Race
by Walter Pistor / 1160 views / Popular
Ready to race, the Radical SR8 is listed amongst the fastest cars to lap the Nurburgring. This car has been maintained to the highest standards and has the most reliable V8 that Radical built coming with a 40-hour warranty from Radical. Larger engine variants like the 3.0 liter had a shorter engine lifespan and were known for cracking the main journal bearing caps. I’ve seen it first hand at Spring Mountain Racing. This car won the European Masters Championship and was meticulously maintained by the race-winning team with a beautiful and fast set-up. The motor and car were completely refreshed by Radical mechanics at Radical HQ in Peterborough, England before shipping to the USA. The transmission was recently completely refreshed and has less than 1.5 hours on it. Spare final drive gears come with it allowing you to easily change the gear ratio for your racetrack of choice. This car comes with all sorts of goodies including 3 sets of wheels and tires (one completely fresh), extra sway bars, 4 sets of extra springs, and all the spare parts you will need to maintain it. Everything has been carefully thought through to make you self sufficient at the racetrack.
